Welcome to The Practical & Applicable Health Podcast!
Hosted by Tom Houpt, Certified Functional Strength Coach.

In this short intro episode, I share what this podcast is all about: cutting through the noise of the fitness and health industry to bring you simple, actionable advice you can actually use in real life. This podcast is for everyday people — the busy parents, professionals, and real humans who want to feel better, move better, and live healthier without getting overwhelmed.

You’ll hear a mix of solo episodes and conversations with fitness pros, healthcare experts, and others who truly understand how to make health sustainable.

I’ve been a personal trainer, CrossFit coach, and small group instructor. But it wasn’t until I fixed my own chronic back pain through functional strength training that I realized the power of coaching done right — and now I help others do the same.
